BARTENDER'S PICKS 2/19-2/25

t

WASH -1 ½ +135 I admit I am not a huge fan of betting Washington. It doesn’t help that they’re having a terrible February and have currently lost 5 of 7. They’re such a soulless Jekyll & Hyde type team but the situation here warrants an attempt. This bet is more a fade on Buffalo than a confident bet on The Caps. This Buffalo team simply doesn’t have a deep roster—Hell, they don’t have an intimidating roster when fully healthy. But, here they are sitting Evander Kane in this one. And as we all know, they also lost Jack Eichel a few weeks back. Eichel and Kane are their leading goal scorers with 22 & 20 respectively as well as their leaders in SOG. That’s a combined 42 goals, 428 SOG and 93 points removed from a lineup that was bottom of the league in offense WITH THEM! It shouldn’t take much from Washington, at home to win this game…and win it by multiple goals.

WIN/DAL over 5 ½ -125 Winny playing the second of a B2B on the road and Dallas is playing their 3 game in 4 nights but it’s a situation I like as I always associate tired teams with degraded defensive play and not being as sharp mentally in their own zone (that’s just me—not sure what the actual stats show). That bodes well for each team offensively as Wnnipeg has been scoring in boatloads lately averaging 4.6 per game over their last 5 and Dallas as a team averages over 3 per game at home. Each team is also shooting on the other’s backup goalie tonight, so I feel six combined goals is very attainable.

PIT/FLA over 6 -105 Penguins offense has now scored 3 or more goals in 8-straight and 19 of 22 games since the calendar flipped. They’re simply locked in offensively. The Pens head into Florida where they play a young, offensively talented Panthers team that has gone 7-3 this month scoring 33 goals in the process (3.3 for you math nerds). Nothing is a guarantee, but this is another game that should be able to combine for an easy 6 or more. These two teams met twice earlier this year with The Pens winning 4-3 both times.

Good luck to all!

Thanks, buddy! Hope your night was a profittable one! 

I try to wait until after the games are over so as to really get a guage on how the game will go. 

Lol j/k. Of course I post before game time. And I don't have a particular time set for each day. Depends when I wake up, what I have to do, how long it takes me to look at games and when those games start etc etc

Overall 149-105 +$4865.00

BOS -1 ½ +130  Bruins haven’t lost back-to-back games since mid-December and that was the only time they have in the last 3+ months. For that reason, I expect a bounce-back win here as well as the reasoning I used to bet against Buffalo yesterday which was this: When healthy, this Sabres roster isn’t very intimidating and ranked bottom of the league in goals for. They’ve since lost Jack Eichel and now are sitting Evander Kane. Those two were their leading goal scorers with 22 & 20 respectively as well as their leaders in SOG. That’s a combined 42 goals, 428 SOG and 93 points missing from an already very poor offensive lineup. They mustered 29 shots and 1 goal yesterday against Washington back-up Grubauer and now must try and score on the stingiest team in the league while hoping Chad Johnson can hold down a Bruins offense averaging 3.5 goals per game through the month of February, who also come in with a revenge factor in mind. I see Boston rolling here.

Good luck, everyone! 

I really don't understand these Covers forum boards and why they are so sketchy when it comes to fonts and spacework when things are copy & pasted.

I'm constantly getting big gaps between paragraphs, bold font changing to regular, parts missing, can't make those changes here--has to be back on another application then pasted here again etc etc

Anyway, the date is missing 2/25 and the note that this is a 2 unit play.

Buffalo

Yes?
